this time, suggesting that the minimum square footage per resi-
dence would probably be eleven to twelve hundred square feet.

the motion regarding advertisement of a public hearing to rezone

request to rezone could be changed to a request for R-1 zoning
instead of the R1-A request originally submitted to the Commis-
sion.

MAY 10, 1993
7:00P.M. -7:42 P.M.
Mr. Bob Harris from a neighboring street addressed the Commission
speaking in favor of the rezoning, adding that his concerns are
with the aesthetics and drainage in the area.
In response to Mr. Harris' concerns, developer Mr. Jim Green
explained that the drainage would flow S/E naturally on the West
side of Phase Eight. He stated that drainage plans in the area
would enhance the already existing drainage.
Mr. Green presented the Commission with a preliminary Bill of
Assurance for the Jenny Lynn Subdivision. (a copy is on file in the
City Clerks Office) He highlighted what he felt are the two major
concerns of any one living in the area; that being land use, with
building type and architectural control. He related that the
intent was to build an above average neighborhood that is more
affordable than Stonewall or Foxwood. He related that each
dwelling shall be required to have a minimum of 50% of it's floor
exterior wall area covered by brick and every house will be
required to have a two car garage or carport. As stated in the
Bill of Assurance on page three .Mr. Green further related that the
first six lots (1 thru 6) would have a minimum of 1200 square feet,
1100 square feet on lots 7 thru 9 and 1000 square feet on lots 10
thru 12.

reference to the 25' front setback was certainly a consideration in
approving the preliminary plat and may have bearing on the decision
to rezone.
Commissioner Brannen moved, seconded by Commissioner Green to
recommend to the City Council rezoning from C-3 to R-1. MOTION CARRIED.

REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
MAY 10, 1993
7:00 P.M. -7:42 P.M.
REQUEST TO SET UP PUBLIC HEARINGS: It was noted that there was no
request to set up public hearing.
REQUESTS TO APPROVE BUILDING PERMITS: It was noted that there was
no request to approve building permits at this time.
REQUEST TO APPROVE PLATS: JENNY LYNN SUBDIVISION/PRELIMINARY PLAT
Chairman Gray related that this request was presented in April and
inquired as to any drainage problems that would need to be
addressed at this time.
City Engineer Duane Reel noted that the only problem would have
been the water falling in the lots that are to be serviced by the
culdesac, adding that it has adequately been taken care of.
Chairman Gray related that the preliminary plat represented a
variance in the normal setback requirements of 35 feet for a zoning
of R-1 adding that the request is to approve the plat with 25 foot
front setbacks.
In response to Commissioner Brannnen question concerning the
previous variance needed for Lot 12, Mr. Green stated that the
request for 25 foot front setback is for all lots within the Jenny
Lynn Subdivision.
Chairman Gray stated that the Planning Commission is charged to
work the subdivision to the benefit of the City and has the
authority to allow variances on the building lines for
practicality.
Commissioner Brannen moved, seconded by Commissioner Green to
APPROVE the preliminary plat of the Jenny Lynn Subdivision with a
25 foot front building line setback variance.
Commissioner Patton questioned the need for the variance to 25 feet
as opposed to the 35 foot setback requirement.
Mr. Green related that the greatest need for the 25 foot setback is
on lot 12, between the arbitrary building line in the back with
the natural gas line and the front building line. He further
related that part of the justification is that Northeastern is 24
to 25 foot street with existing abnormally wide right of way.

3

REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
SEPTEMBER 13, 1993
7:00 P.M. -8:15 P.M.
property across James Street is already zoned C-2, accommodating a
dentist office, and adding that the other two sides are zoned
commercial.
Commissioner Foster related that she felt rezoning the property is
unnecessary as there is already existing commercial property that
is vacant which could be used as an insurance office.
Commissioner Brannen related that he felt it would infringe on the
buffer zone existing in the area.
Commissioner Dornblaser related that the Planning Commission is not
responsible for helping the owner sell her property, adding that he

In response to a question posed by Commissioner Reid, Chairman Gray
related that this is the second public hearing to be held on the
rezoning of the lots in question. He further related that the
first posting of the property and the advertisement was under the
wrong date and while there was no response from the public on that
date, for the purpose of accuracy, it was re-posted and re-
advertised with the correct date.
Discussion ensued as to what type of construction surrounded the
house in question.
Mrs. Smith related that there was a dwelling on the north side of
the house but, that to her knowledge, there were no objections to
the rezoning.
City Engineer Reel related that at the time the property was
purchased there were no zoning classifications in the city, all
property inside the city limits began with an R-0 zoning which
could be rezoned by special request from the property owner and was
later influenced as the Master Street Plan was adopted by
ordinance. He said that plan designated parameters which were
eligible for rezoning. At that time Vine Street was chosen as the
cut-off going North on James Street with the property on the West
side of James up to Vine being commercial, and two properties on
the East side of James are at this point not commercial. He then
related that the property owners on the West side of James Street
jointly had the property rezoned as not to create spot zoning
classification adding that the property in request is bounded on
three sides by either commercial or multi-residential dwelling but
was not included in the earlier request for joint rezoning.

DEVIATION IN AGENDA:
CLOSING A PORTION OF NATCHEZ TRACE:
Chairman Gray introduced the item of business and declared the
public hearing open at approximately 7:02p.m., inviting those of
the public who would like to speak in favor of the closing.
Mr. Jack Danielson of 100 Quapaw related that his desire is to
create a visual and sound buffer from the Highway traffic with
scrubs. He stated that he had no objection to a public access for
the bridge located adjacent to the proposed property to be closed.
Mr. Joe Honeycutt of 105 Chickasaw stated that the only objection
to the closing would be if the foot bridge was cut off from public
access. He related that the bridge is the only access to
Northeastern for the children to walk or ride bikes to school other
than along T.P. White service road. He then related that the speed
limit of 45 mph is not observed by the cars using the service road
making it too dangerous for the children to use this road as a
method of travel and that the 1/4 mile distance from Tecumseh Trail
to Northeastern has no sidewalk or shoulder to the road.
City Engineer Reel related that research shows that the street is
dedicated to the ditch with no legal easement for the property
south of the bridge, adding that the property owner has granted
access from the bridge to Northeastern contingent on future
development of the property.
Chairman Gray closed the public hearing at approximately 7:07 p.m.
and opened the discussion among the Planning Commissioners.
During general discussion it was related that the owner of the
property south of the ditch is Bart Gray Realty Company.

Chairman Gray related that if the street were closed, as requested,
the Planning Commission could include in the action a 10 ft.
easement granting public access to the bridge.
City Engineer Reel related that a utility easement would need to be
retained and through this easement the public could have access to
the bridge with possible relocation of the side walk on the south
side in regard to any future development there.
Commissioner Piggee moved, seconded by Commissioner Payne to
recommend to Council closing a portion of Natchez Trace and
granting a ten foot easement down the center of Natchez Trace to
the bridge maintained for public access. MOTION CARRIED.
Questions arose from Mr. Joe Honeycutt as to the location of the
easement in regard to the location of the bridge.
Chairman Gray explained that technically when the closing of a
street occurs, it is divided equally between the prospective
property owners adding that he did not feel that this would present
a problem with Mr. Danielson allowing the east side of the street
to be used as the public access way.

and City Engineer Reel required further discussion with regard to
the item of business.
Chairman Gray opened the second public hearing at approximately

REZONING OF LOTS 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26 AND 30, BLOCK 2
BROWN ADDITION TO THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE
Chairman Gray related that the request was from petitioner Karen
Whitley to rezone the afore mentioned lots in the Brown Addition
from R-1 to C-3.
Mr. Doug Wilkinson represented Mrs. Whitley in her request. He
related that she is executrix of the Brown Estate, pointing out
that the Hwy Department has taken the bulk of the lots of 18, 20,
22, 23, 24, 25, and 26, adding that the only full lot is lot 30.
He stated that the lots are unsuitable for single family dwellings
and asked for permission from the Commission to change the zoning
request from C-3 to C-1 which would be quiet commercial rather than
Hwy Commercial.
Chairman Gray related that the change of zoning request is
permissible since C-1 carries more restrictions than does the
zoning class of C-3. He asked Planning Commission Secretary Lu
Leonard to read the permitted uses in the two zoning classes.
At this time Mrs. Leonard read from the Municipal Code Book the
permitted uses.
Chairman Gray asked if there was a spokesman to represent
opposition to the rezoning.
Mr. John Gentry of 1004 Jeff Davis submitted petitions from the
residents of the area and photographs for the perusal of the
Planning Commission. He then stated that the residents are opposed
to any type of rezoning to a commercial classification. He further
related that the Bill of Assurance guaranteed the lots would remain
residential. He offered later input if requested by the Planning
Commission.
Chairman Gray related that all relative information would be
allowed.

adjacent to commercially zoned property on the front and the back
sides. She stated that the C-1 zoning could serve as a buffer to
the unsightly existing commercial property. She mentioned the
multi-family dwellings which are present in the area with regard to
the precedence being commercial. She offered the residents the
opportunity to purchase the property for a buffer against the Hwy
if they so desired at a below market price. She reiterated that
her desire is to sell the property which is unsuitable for
residential purchase adding that the only inquiries by potential
buyers has been for multi-family development or quiet commercial.
Mr. Joe Johnson, an area resident expressed that it is the desire
to keep the neighborhood stable. He asked that the Planning
Commission give consideration to the fact that area businesses keep
encroaching on residential areas which brings property values down.
Mr. John Gentry asked for the opportunity to respond. He then
stated that the area residents are opposed to uses for C-1 zoning
adding that the apartment dwelling on the corner has become a
plight for the neighborhood adding that initially they were
supposed to be town houses. He related that once property is
rezoned the use of the property can be changed as was the case with
the apartments and for that reason the area residents are opposed
to any commercial rezoning. He added that if a developer was to
approach the residents with their plans an agreement could possibly
be reached.
Chairman Gray closed the public hearing at approximately 7:24p.m.
Chairman Gray related that Mr. Piggee, who was absent from the
meeting, had previously shared his thoughts on the rezoning and
asked that his view to deny the rezoning be shared for the record
at the public hearing.
Commissioner Dornblaser commented that any further development in
the area of Hwy 67/167 would complicate the already congested
traffic situation at the intersection of Hill Street. He then
related that the best interest of Jacksonville would be to look at
already zaned commercial property for development instead of
rezoning pieces of property.
Chairman Gray related that lots 16 and 17 have a C-1 classification
adding that during a previous public hearing for rezoning of
property in the same general area the Bill of Assurance indicates
that there will be no zoning change which would apply to all lots
of Block 2 except lots 22 -29. He related that lots 18, 21, and
30 as requested were not included in the exception.

Chairman Gray stated that general discussion indicated that an
amended Bill of Assurance may exist, however, it was not available
to the Planning Commission for perusal. He noted the contents of
the original Bill of Assurance dated June 17, 1953.
Commissioner Foster related that a rezoning domino effect seem to
occur when residential areas are rezoned.
Commissioner Reid related that he had reservations about the
rezoning.
Commissioner Patton suggested that due to unanswered questions from
both sides he felt the item of business needed to be tabled at this
time in order to give both parties an opportunity to negotiate a
solution before the Planning Commission hands down a decision.
Commissioner Green remarked that he is a resident on Jeff Davis and
has spoken with several of the residents in the area adding that as
owner of lot 19 he has an interest on both sides of the rezoning.
His feedback indicated that they would not be agreeable to any type
of rezoning.
Commissioner Patton moved to table the item of business for 30 days
in order to give the parties time to negotiate. THE MOTION DIED
FOR LACK OF A SECOND.

recommend denial to the City Council for the rezoning of lots 18,

City Engineer Reel requested to be heard by the Planning Commission
relating that on the rezoning request on Stanphil Road, Mr. Akridge
is requesting that it be tabled until the next regularly scheduled
Planning Commission meeting in January of 1994.
Chairman Gray related that the public hearing would need to be re-
advertised before appearing before the Planning Commission in
January, the reason being that three of the Commissioners will be
leaving the Planning Commission giving three new Commissioners the
opportunity to preview the necessary data surrounding the rezoning
request.
City Engineer Reel related that Mr. Akridge wanted to review
correct zoning and his plans for the area and any plans of adjacent
property owners.
Chairman Gray related that there would be no problem in holding the
item in abyance.
Mr. Akridge stated that when he purchased the property he believed
it was zoned R-3 adding that after talking with the City Engineer
he discovered that it may be zoned R-0, which is the basis for his
request to rezoned from R-0 to R-1. He related that he felt he
would like to sell the lots as R-1.

January 1994, giving Mr. Akridge more time for consideration with
